This is the worst stove I have ever owned or used. The touch controls don't work well. They turn off in the middle of cooking and I actually started a fire when I set down a small bag of popcorn on the stove because the burner automatically turned on! These kinds of controls are not smart for a flat stove top that's in the middle of a kitchen. (Yes, I now use the locking tool after every meal prep). Additionally, the surface is very difficult to clean after a few months. Water stains/spills require multiple cleanings. And NOW, a large section of the front glass has arbitrarily broken off. (I was wiping the stove down with PAPER TOWEL). The piece that broke off is a clean break at the seam on the front which tells me this is a manufacturing defect. Unfortunately for me, I am 4 months past the 1 year warranty. Will NEVER by a GE appliance again. The quality is gone......
